The "char" rule in the json standard can be matched by anything that isn't a control character, a double quote, or a backslash. I'm pretty sure you're not arguing that the forward slash is a double quote or that the forward slash is a backslash, so the only option left is that '/' is a control character, and thus needs escaping. I'm pretty sure that it's not, because 002f is not in the range defined as a control character[1]
